TURKEY IS AT WAR WITH OUR KURDISH ALLIES IN SYRIA. TURKEY MUST BE EXPELLED FROM NATO.

“The Surah Conquest [Surah al-Fath] will be cited during the special sessions to pray for the victory of our heroic security forces, who have launched an operation against terrorist groups that threaten our nation and our peace,” Erbas added….
